View of the Old Missouri fire house, Georgetown, Colorado, the home for the town's first fire company, the Georgetown Fire Company No.1. Located on Taos Street, the building has a tall false front with a square bell tower and a bell on the roof, topped by a flagpole. At ground level are a large door for equipment and a smaller door; a round sign near the top of the front reads, "Old Missouri." The outline of a door and a window at the second story level are faintly visible, and are vestiges of a balcony from which the firemen gave concerts to people in City Park, opposite the building. The park's wire fence is visible in the foreground, and the mountain is in the background.
